Just a reminder that Health insurance companies are scammers. ALL OF THEM. Their whole business model is to deny sick people care to turn a profit. SCUM. OF. THE. EARTH.

It’s not the business model I work in insurance analytics. The model works. There’s enough money from the premiums to cover and normal expense. The exception is when something like what happened with the California fires happens and everyone needs to cash in on insurance. Companies just have such a need to scrape profits for shareholder value that the model no longer matters. The model isn’t about covering people anymore it’s now how little people can we cover while collecting the most money.

I would say any business that is publicly traded is not safe at all from capitalist greed. The entire idea of the market is to put profits over people. It doesn’t work and I hope one day we can move on from it, but I doubt that will ever happen.

I really hate to be pessimistic, but there’s this quote that goes: “it’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.”

I do wanna clarify I’m not trying to push complacency for the system. I just think a lot of systems like Universal healthcare that can work alongside capitalism are the best for doing what we can to improve
